What is Guardianship?

Guardianship is a legal arrangement that allows one person (the guardian) to make decisions on behalf of another individual who cannot fully care for themselves (the ward). This arrangement can be temporary or long-term and is most commonly sought for:

• Minor children who need stability and care outside of their immediate family.

• Adults with special needs who require ongoing support with daily decisions and personal affairs.

• Elderly family members who need help managing their medical, financial, or living arrangements.

Types of Guardianship in Nevada

In Nevada, there are several types of guardianships, each designed to address specific needs:

• Guardianship of the Person – Involves making decisions about the personal well-being of the ward, including medical, educational, and social care.

• Guardianship of the Estate – Grants authority over the ward’s financial matters, including managing assets, paying bills, and protecting income.

• General and Temporary Guardianship – General guardianship is more permanent, while temporary guardianship can provide a solution for urgent or short-term situations.

Patricia H. Warnock, Esq. can guide you through these options and help determine the best solution to meet your family’s needs.

Why Guardianship?

Guardianship can be the best solution to protect the well-being of a vulnerable family member. Whether it's helping a relative navigate healthcare and finances or ensuring a safe, stable home for a minor, guardianship provides the legal tools to:

• Ensure appropriate healthcare and education.

• Manage finances responsibly to safeguard the ward’s assets.

• Make long-term care arrangements when needed.
